Graphic card power and motherboard compatibility

Nour Eldeen · Nov 22, 2016

I want to upgrade my graphics card and not sure whether my setup is compatible or not. My power supply is a Thermaltake 450W with 6 pins I guess. and my motherboard is Gigabyte P75-D3. I looked up and found that GTX 1060 might work with that setup. Will it really work?, If not what other graphic card can I get?.
My complete setup:-
Case: Thermaltake Commander MS-I
CPU: Intel Core i5 3470
GPU: Sapphire HD 7750 1GB GGDR5
PSU: Thermaltake 450W
RAM: 8GB DDR3 798MHz Dual-Channel
Motherboard: Gigabyte P75-D3

A picture of the PSU:

It will work fine but i think u will need a psu change to for that gpu
If ur psu has a 80 bronze badge than u dont need to change it if it does not have one than u will need to change it

So for how long will it work and then need changing?. Because I'll need time to afford a better PSU.

Id recommend you not to put it in your pc till you get a new one i may damage the gpu so id play it safe and get a 500-600 psu with a 80 plus certification just to be safe in my country they are going for about 40-60 euro but if u are in europe or us it will be lot cheaper

Thank you for your answer. But I'll wait for someone else. Someone might come up with another answer.

No problem first time a bought a gpu few years ago i used some 350 psu and my gpu worked for few months and than it burned out so im just telling u to play it safe and get a better one so it does not happen to you because warranty for gpu wont work if you dont have enough powerfull psu
